Well I decided to try the pop up flash for another bug. So when I turned and shot this one I noticed that it took off when the flash went off. Sometimes it would land right away, sometimes it would fly a bit and land. But also I guess there is a short pre-flash that goes off, so in most of the shots, the fly was in the air. This was the only one that came out useable.

Yes I believe that is accurate, I had them in the garden when I was growing vegetables.
+1 on other comments, excellent shot.

Crane Fly. Taken from the inside of a not so clean window. I cleaned up some of the worst specks with clone stamp, but it got to be a daunting task. |

Well, not sure how great of a care taker I am, but I could at least help you fight the nursing home thing :)
Truth told, I have a Sigma 70-300 lens. I think I paid $35 for it and it is quite a decent lens and the macro is not bad. Not the sharpest at 300mm at infinity, but no complaints, really.

I believe you will like having a true macro lens. I haven't used extension tubes in at least 20 years.
